Great day for you. Not to good for the pheasants. This is from a 75 year
old man that hunted most of my life starting at the age of 7. Like your
politics but wish you could get past the joy of killing. I did 30 years
ago.
+Eradicus I also have been a vegetarian for 2 years. I haven't eaten meat for many years but finally gave up eggs and dairy 2 years ago. I don't mention it much because the discussion usually gets ugly. To each his own.My Dad grew up on a ranch in Nevada and it was common to kill for food. Everyone hunted. Later he worked in a slaughter house. Killing sometimes as many as a thousand animals a day. He used to tell me about standing in knee deep blood .We had a falling out when I was around 14 years old. We were deer hunting and Dad had killed a deer. When we walked up on the deer it was still alive and looking at us. Dad had to put it out of its misery. I told him then I didn't want to hunt anymore. He said I would get over it. I never did. Later in his life he would talk about all the animals he had killed and how bad he felt about it. We had many converstions about it. I would always try to make him feel better but he never got over it. I never hunted again and still have 5 shot guns and 4 rifles. Trying to decide if I should give them to my Grandkids. They have been in storage for over 40 years.
+Mars To Sirius +Patrick van meter I've gone one further. Full convert to the vegetarianism tribe for about a year now. Never looked back - but I do feel increasingly guilty about the state of things for animals. Truly is horrible what goes on on these farms. As you say Mars, hunting is far more humane than the factory farm life of pure unadulterated misery we inflict on literally hundreds of millions of animals - living, breathing, feeling things - every day. Hunting is certainly preferable to that - but on the other hand, something so utterly depressing to me to think that we go into unspoiled nature and with all the arrogance that befits the human species decide it's well within our right to kill indiscriminately innocent creatures who did nothing whatsoever to us except had the misfortune to wander into our sights... I mean, what sort of behaviour is that?Does Ed still do call-ins? Before I get to the many, many important issues we agree on I think I'd open the conversation and get this out the way. +Patrick van meter What happened with you and your dad - can you go into more detail?
+Eradicus Agreed. If it's being used for sport, it's tragic & senseless. Now if Ed is hunting with the intention to eat said hunt, well...that would be by far THE most humane method of obtaining meat for consumption IMO :)
+Eradicus I could go way back and tell stories about my Dad and how in the end of his life felt concern about all the animals he had killed. All I will say is that I much prefer seeing them alive than dead.
+Patrick van meter Patrick, I fully agree. I'm glad to know I'm not the only Ed fan who dislikes this. In fact, it's the one thing that really, frequently grates me about him - his love of hunting and fishing aka the slaughter of innocent creatures for 'pleasure'.
Our camel Aria, who is only one and a half years old...aspires to dressage.
She lays down , picks up all four legs, shakes hands, waves, stands on her
pedestal, is learning to retrieve, loads and trailers, does the in hand
trail course, ponies, bathes, clips, gives hugs and kisses, without having
been trained with any typical rope restraints or sticks. She is trained
with Friendship Training, the same way we train our zebras, horses, mules,
donkeys, zorses and zonkeys.
Most dressage competitors women over 35yrs, use whatever horse they own and
only dream of owning a truly talented mount which most riders don't have
the ability to truly utilize. I've ridden with 5 Olympians for extended
periods over the years, have paid for lessons, and done the training
myself...and yes I own a very talented mare that I bred. She has a German
sire with snotty breeding that is in 80% of the Olympic dressage
horses...and she wins when she competes.
you're obviously a kid that is very impressed with yourself, and i don't
need to show videos as i've been a demonstration rider for the west coast
dressage judges forum receiving high marks from around thirty judges...and
paid for everything myself...and the warmblood i ride is only a horse that
i bred and worth 50-80k. Try working on your riding and not putting others
down. Most of us don't buy horses in Germany that we can't ride and drive
BMW's.
as if we are going to believe any of that when you havent got any of your
own videos to show. We dont give a dam who you have ridden with, I have had
lessons with Pippa Funnell, Tina Cook, William Fox-Pitt, Mark Corbett and
Elaine Wilson but I dont go round blagging about it coz no-one really
cares!! Just coz you appear to be bloody rich and can afford all of that,
doesnt mean you have to blag about it to everyone else!!
All these arrogant snotty dressage people who brag about there $100,000.00
German warmblood's just got served a can of camel whoop ass!!!!! Sadly it
wont catch on with the kids for the camel is the only animal that when
being ridden can turn around and bite you in the chest. To many crying 10
yr old muffy kids running to there mommies in there BMW's.
Have YOU ever ridden a horse before? Come see my horse, when i'm coming to
his stable he's making a lot of sound to welcome me and is even happyer
when i come walking with the saddle. My horse loves to work, feels
apreciated when we're riding and has fun when we're riding. How do i know
that? by his bodylanguage. Do you know horses bodylanguage?
Oh wow. He even did a flying lead change. Wow. Dressage is hard, and that
camel looked like it knew its job LOL!! My arab. eventer would not let that
camel near him though. Dressage is way harder than barrel racing. I'd like
to see a barrel racer put a horse in a frame and put it through a test.
Good luck.
I am not sure if you are up to date in the quarter horse show ring but if
you were you would know there are rules against being behind vertical as
well as letting the poll drop below the withers. Please be informed before
trying to critisize. AND as for the camel....way to go that is truely
amazing!!!
How does one gets ones camel on the bit? Can a camel feel the riders legs
through all that padding? Perhaps I might be overly cynical but my
immediate thoughts are the amount of abuse that animal may have suffered in
order to perform like that? What do others think?
Actually, its in the Olympics, its called dressage. And there is a whole
big thing called the Rolex. How arrogant can people get. Honestly. It is
EXTREMLY hard to get a horse to do this. Traing a horse to do tempi changes
takes years to get down.
Obviously you Don't get it...The full pass...the half pass...flying lead
changes... If you don't get it you probably don't do it and therefore don't
see the beauty in the softness of this ride. It is pretty amazing.
not to be mean but just so u know the camel wasnt just "runnig around" he
was doing very hard excercises including tempi changes, which are very hard
to teach any animal
To dappledpengiuns..For sure there are nice dressage people...just dont
meet too many Sadly...you should change the words in your reply "some" to
"most".
This is the coolest thing! Way to go, guys! I love it, keep it up! Looks
like playing with camels is as much fun as playing with horses. :)
